I'm sorry but not a single kill was unjustified. Legalize murder!
johnMar 13, 2021There is no greater feeling than seeing Matthew Lillard in a film you didn't expect him to be in.

“the only ‘serial’ i know anything about is rice krispies!”
KarstenJun 27, 2021The woman in this film who has an orgasmic experience watching Annie while her dog licks her feet is the most horrifying pervert depicted in any John Waters film.

I often forget how canny John Waters is. Rewatching this, for the first time in over 15 years, what struck me most is the way Waters addressed the American obsession with crime and sensationalized murder with his usual over-the-top aplomb and obvious affection. He lightly…

Truly the best comedy ever made. Even on my third watch it gets audible laughs out of me. Every frame in this film is stylized and every word spoken is perfectly written. An incredible satire which still holds up in the modern day. 100% (8/27 watched with John Waters Commentary)
Morgan lovedSerial Momi watched this for mother’s day and i absolutely loved it it was campy, hilarious, fun and clever and i just adored beverly, she did nothing wrong tbh this is such a good satirical female rage film that explores the hypocrisies within our society when it comes to violence
CoolSkaterBro likedSerial MomIt had an unsettling vibe to it. Most of the movie I was kinda bored but it was just good enough to keep me watching in the hopes that it’d get better. It started to get good the last 30 minutes so I’m glad I stayed. Good movie just think its a one watch only type of show

Why did I think this was going to be like a Mother's Day slasher going in blind? It ended being way better than I was expecting, I suppose. You got a young Matthew Lillard and Suzanne Somers plus some quotable lines in this.
MovieDaddy lovedSerial MomA classic horror comedy before it was a legitimate subgenre, though definitely way more comedy than horror. The laughs are hard and the kill scenes are ridiculously over the top. Quintessential 90s viewing. So funny.
Joshua Breeding lovedSerial Mom7.8/10 Super campy. Don’t take it seriously and you’ll have a blast. I love how many kills she ends up getting. Just a mom doing all she can for her kids. Great Mother’s Day movie. So many great quotable lines.

Metacritic
Serial Mom is the strongest film of the post-midnight-movie chapter of John Waters’s career.
Eric Henderson
Slant Magazine
Fun, almost endearing in its cheeky irreverence, but also rather mild and scattershot in its satiric marksmanship, Serial Mom provokes chuckles and the occasional raised eyebrow rather than guffaws and gross-outs.
